Hi Guys,

you need to buy the fuel from the same vendor, and ideally from the same station to do mileage analyses, as the octane rating has a federal allowance of an unbelievable 18% accuracy.

Note that higher octane = lower milage as octane is an efficiency inhibitor. Of course, under boost... :&gt

If you want to read some great material on improving mileage in performance engines, search google for "acetone fuel additive".

the acetone theory was debunked by the myth busters tv show. it actually decreased mileage.
